At present, there are two main implementation manners of filters in radio frequency systems: SAW (surface acoustic wave) filters and BAW (bulk acoustic wave) filters. Compared with a surface acoustic wave filter, the bulk acoustic wave filter has the advantages of high working frequency and power capacity, wherein the FBAR (film bulk acoustic resonator) filter has the characteristics of high frequency, low loss and low temperature drift, a steep filter skirt edge, an extremely high Q value, working frequency, sensitivity, resolution, bearable power capacity, small volume and the characteristic that the preparation process is compatible with CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor), and occupies most of the application field of wireless communication. Adopt the supporting legs of the Bragg reflector interphase structure of horizontal distribution at FBAR structure edge, can improve the mechanical quality factor of FBAR syntonizer, improve syntonizer self performance, in addition, it often needs to increase peripheral support frame in FBAR syntonizer outside in order to make a plurality of syntonizers integrated to build traditional FBAR filter, but this kind of traditional hookup mode has often limited FBAR filter's integrated level, the supporting legs hookup through the Bragg reflector interphase structure of horizontal distribution between the FBAR syntonizer can make the syntonizer mode of arranging diversified, can also be for vertical stack mode for horizontal arrangement, can improve the filter fill factor, improve the integrated level of filter, reduce the processing cost.
